Raspberry Pi 3B case to fit Kintaro heatsink

Description

I really like the Kintaro heatsinks, but I don't like the idea of attaching them to the Pi via the screws they include in the box that are presumably supposed to pass through the Pi & then bite into a plastic case beneath - because then whenever you remove the Pi from the case, you run the risk of the heatsink sliding around or falling off & getting messy thermal transfer compound everywhere. Instead I attach them to the Pi with M2 nuts & bolts, however that means that the base of the Pi is raised by the width of the M2 nut. So this remix reduces the height of the standoffs in 0110-M-P's base by the width of a M2 nut so that the Pi still sits at the correct level, then adds ventilation slots to sepro's extended top that is tall enough to fit over the heatsink. I also made a version with a 40mm fan mount on the lid https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3049873
